Song Of The Day #793

Ranch Radio presents another "Ol Boys Julie Carter May Have Known" tune. Today's selection is Man With The Big Hat by Jerry Jeff Walker. The song is on his Live at Gruene Hall CD.

I can just see the old cowboy leaning with his back to the bar, telling his stories to the cowboys gathered round. And look, right over there is Julie Carter. She's borrowed someone's tally book and is writing it all down.
